Just a little tidbit you outta know if youre gonna do this quest: the undead miners have a rend ability that stacks and does ALOT of damage if you get more than 2 or 3 stacked on you.

Comment by KaptenK

No rep, no reward, mobs that respawn fast and hit too hard with a long agro radius around slow spawning quest items. PASS THIS ONE.

Comment by Syce

well i dont know if this quest is bugged but when i went to do it, i couldnt find a single cart, i looked every where.

I havent tested this out, but it seems like the pit to the east of Galakrond's Rest has the fastest respawn rate for the ore carts. They all seemed to have 10-30 sec respawn time.

I have spent almost 4 hours in the area, coming back to especially one of the sites (which was pointed out by my questhelper), but not once did I see any carts or ores.Since every time I came to the location, I saw the same mob having been killed recently, I assumed someone was logging in regularly in order to farm the ore, so I desided to stay around and watch for when the cart would spawn again.

I was there for little over one hour, but I didn't see any carts spawn, nor did any players stop by.

I don't know what's wrong, but I won't be completing this quest today it seems.

Any thoughts on what was the reason that I couldn't find any ore or carts?

Confirming what was said above. I picked up the quest around 04:45, yup, smackdab in the middle of the night/early morning. Flew to the smaller clyft and picked up the first ore, then two from the larger one bit southeast of the first.

Waited five-ten minutes for pop, nothing happens, so I went and did the giant/goblin quests in the Vice, and a few others. Each time I handed in quests I flew past to have a quick look. 45mins later there's still no ore respawns. I havn't seen anyone else flying or questing in this area.

The quest itself work, since the ore is there, the respawn however.. does not. When writing this I've just spent another ten minutes waiting and nothing happens, no other player around either.

Wtf.... I have 7/8 ores now, some respawn... I CANT PICK THEM UP. They are just click-through now. Just my luck to have /8 when that happens... -_-

One of the most frustrating quests for a mage! The Wastes Diggers respawn at a high rate and does not allow for drinking and eating (especially when using the fire tree). Best to use frost tree and try not to run through, just gather ore by running up and down entrances.

Comment by Maszatar

the ores can be looted while in swift flight form, pretty uncommon for a quest item

3.1.1 - I can't see the boxes :< (I tried to cancel the quest and pick it up again, no results)

I believe there is a cap on the total number of carts that can be spawned at any one time. At each of the 4 dig sites, there are about 4 spawn points - but there can only be a total of 4 carts out at once. If you're having trouble finding any carts, go to each of the other spawn areas marked on the map - you should find that as you take one cart, it becomes possible for another to spawn - if not at your current location then at one of the others. I was flying a circuit between three of them for ages before I remember the 4th spawn area... when I got there, all of the spawn points had carts on them - which explained why none of the other areas had any at all....

The Wastes Diggers spawn very quickly .... and protect each other ... had to vanish a few times as a 75 rogue

I completed this quest today to find the exp reward has changed. It is now 2,100 exp and not 20,750 exp as stated at the top of this page. Monetary reward remains the same.
